The soil compaction process is very important for the safety and effectiveness of the construction site. Different types of compacting equipment are designed for a variety of applications, but the overall goal is the same: to compact the soil to provide a solid foundation. It does this by applying force to remove pores in the soil. The lower the porosity, the denser the soil and can hold more weight, mechanical soil compaction accelerates the natural process of soil settlement.
Among them, compaction force plate packers (or engine compactors) are usually powered by gasoline or diesel engine and allow layers of material to be compacted until tightly bonded and firm, providing a good solid foundation for things like patios, trails, driveways and even turf laying.
